III. Base Manufacturer’s Electronics

InInvvacaracare e i) MKIV-A JoystickBy pulling up and releasing the toggle switch, the controller will be placed in the standard driveselection mode. The mode indicator light will remain on in drive selection mode. To place thecontroller in the power positioning mode (ECU/Recline), the controller must sit inactive until themode indicator light begins to flash, then the joystick must be tapped to the left. (For completeinstructions on the set-up and operation of the power poistioning system through the joystick,please refer to the Invacare Owners Manual). The power positioning functions may be assignedto one or more drive modes depending on the system set-up. To select the required drive mode,the toggle switch must be pulled up again and released. This operation will be repeated until therequired drive mode light appears. To operate the power positioning functions*, the joystick canbe moved in the forward, reverse, left and right directions. The mode indicator light will remainOFF while in the power positioning mode. To return the controller to standard drive selectionmode, the controller must remain inactive until the mode indicator light begins to flash, then thejoystick may be moved once in any direction.

*Note: The power positioning functions may be assigned to the joystick depending on the typeof seating system and the users preferred set-up (eg. forward= tilt, reverse= recline, etc...) AnInvacare Programmer is required in order to program/assign the specific motor functions to theMKIV-A Joystick. Please refer to the Invacare Manual for complete programming instructions.

ii) MKIV Controllers/ MKIV RII ControllersThe MKIV controllers contain the primary electronics to operate the power base. In order for theMKIV A Joystick to operate a TRx power positioning system, an Invacare ECU com box is required.the ECU com box connects the MKIV controller to the TRx Relay Box.

iii) DPJ Joystick for the MK5 ControllersThe MK5-DPJ joystick has two programmable drive selection modes: Drive 1 and Drive 2. Toselect Drive 1 mode, the toggle switch must be placed in the UP position. To select Drive 2

mode, the toggle switch is placed in the MIDDLE position. The mode switch LED indicator light

will be OFF when the wheelchair is placed in either drive mode. To put the controller in the powerpositioning mode* (ECU/Recline), the mode switch must be pressed. The LED indicator lightwill be turned ON while in the power positioning mode. To operate the power positioning functions,the joystick can be moved in the forward, reverse, left and right directions. (Note: power position-ing functions may be assigned to the joystick directions depending on the seating system). Toreturn to the drive selection mode, the mode switch must be pressed again until the LED indica-tor light is OFF.

*Please Note: The DPJ Joystick is a basic model joystick and has limited programming capabil-ities for power positioning. Please refer to the Invacare Manual for instructions on programmingthe DPJ Joystick.

InInvvacaracare e (... cont’d)iv) MPJ Joystick for MK5 ControllersThe MK5-MPJ joystick has four independent programmable drive selection modes: Drive 1,Drive 2, Drive 3, & Drive 4. The individual Drive modes can be selected by lifting and releasingthe toggle switch. The selected Drive mode appears in the LCD display on the joystick. Eachtime the toggle switch is lifted and released it will cycle through to the next Drive mode. (i.e.; Toselect Drive 1 mode, the toggle switch is lifted up once and released. To select Drive 2, the tog-gle switch is lifted again and released, to select Drive 3... etc...) The controller will return back toDrive 1 after Drive 4. To operate the power positioning system (ECU/Recline) through the joy-stick, a separate emergency stop (reset) switch is typically installed. To access ECU1, tap thejoystick to the left 2 times (left/left); if ECU2 is required tap the joystick to the left 2 times and hold(left/left hold). (For complete instructions on the set-up and operation of the power poistioning sys-tem through the joystick, please refer to the Invacare Owners Manual). To operate the powerpositioning functions, the joystick can be moved in the forward, reverse, left and right directions.The functions may be programmed* into the joystick depending on the type of seating system andthe users preferred set-up (eg. forward= tilt, reverse= recline, etc...) The emergency reset switchmust be opened in order to return to the drive selection mode.

*Please Note: An Invacare Programmer is required in order to program/assign the specific motorfunctions to the joystick. Please refer to the Invacare Manual for complete joystick and program-ming instructions.

vi) On-Board Charger (Pronto M91/ M71)The Pronto M91 and Pronto M71 power bases come equipped with anon-board battery charger. The charger has 2 external cables. One cableplugs into the battery charger receptacle (3-pin connection) on the powerbase, and the other cable attaches to a standard 120V wall outlet.

v) MK5 Controllers

The MK5 controller contains the primary electronics to operate the power base, and directs the main

power supply to the TRx Power Positioning System via the TRx power cable. There are two versions

of the MK5 controller. The non-programmable* MK5-EX controller is used with the DPJ Joystick, and

the programmable MK5-TT-EX controller is used with the MPJ Joystick. The power cable connections

are different for each controller:

A.) For the MK5-EX Controller, the power cable is plugged into the “AUX PWR” port on the

bottom of the Controller. (see below)

B.) For the MK5-TT-EX Controller the power cable is plugged into the mating cable connec-

tion on the top of the Controller. (see below)

MK5-TT-EX ControllerMK5-EX Controller

NOTES

*Note: The MK5-EX controller can be made programmable by means ofan Invacare Accessory Cable (P/N- 1118744) and an Invacare Com ECUBox. One end of the Accessory Cable is plugged into the ACC port on theMK5-EX controller, and the other end is then be plugged into the ECU Box.
